    Capacitors and electrostatics PHY 114 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to measure the electrostatic force between two objects as a function of their signs and electrical charges. This was done using many equipment’s such as a glass and rubber rod. In addition‚ investigate how capacitors store energy electrostatically in an electric field‚ share charges and discharge. This was done by using equipment’s like voltage follower‚ DVM‚ powered breadboard unit and a selection of capacitors

    Electrostatic Lab What materials will you use? I will use the virtual lab and elements provided by the class What would you measure? I will measure the static electricity with a neutrally charged balloon What results do you expect? I expect that the balloons charges and sticks to the wall. What is the result are different? That would mean that there is a different way to charge the balloons than negative charge as using your hair. EXPERIMENT Bring together the balloons but not touching

    a lot without knowing their existence is what is called a "capacitor." Many people have heard the word capacitor‚ but also many do not even have an idea of what it means or what is the use for it. In this research‚ I will concentrate on explaining the physics of a capacitor and describing the main types of capacitors that exist today. A capacitor is a device used to store charge in an electrical circuit. The function of a capacitor is much similar to a battery‚ but it charges and discharges
